In a span of a few seconds, everyone managed to successfully hide behind some kind of solid obstacles, and in a blink of an eye later, an unknown blurry beast suddenly violently peck down onto the ground before shooting back up into the sky.A three-metre deep mark was left behind the ground where the young man once stood.
They uttered a sigh of relief, but their expression quickly turns grim as the beast was now circling around them in the sky, it seems to also be preparing to dive down again in an attempt to s.n.a.t.c.h prey.
They tried to cover themself as much as possible behind the trees, but they already knew that it would be useless since the beast could just easily tear it apart along with them.
"Beast Fusion!" Dong Zhou gulped, beast fusion is when two or more beast fuse themselves together to combine their fitness and powers, however, such event is extremely rare as all of the beasts would have to sacrifice themselves to the host beast, and this can not be done forcibly.
The combination of an Cla.s.s King-Tier Three-Eyed Lion and an Cla.s.s King-Tier Razor Eagle resulted in a gryphon-like creature. Its head was that of a giant eagle but with three eyes instead of two, and its body was that of a lion but covered with razor-like scales that are a hundred times tougher than steel!
The fusion had also led to the combination of its fitness and intellect, the beast now has a fitness that of a low-level S-Cla.s.s beast. There is also the possibility of elemental power mutation as a result of two different elemental powers being combined, but there is also the possibility of it only remaining one of its elemental powers.
-Scree!
The beast plunged itself towards the ground, once again its target remained to be the young man who was now unconscious from the impact of Xiao Yang"s sudden attack.
Without further delay, Xiao Yang loaded one of the empty slots of the revolver with his mana then calculated the beast"s position before finally pulling the trigger.
-Bang!
Despite the beast"s incredible speed, it was still unable to dodge the incoming bullet and took a hit onto the left side of its body, the wing that was slightly shielding it had a large lump of its flesh turned off.
The bullet exploded upon impact causing a large amount of the outer layer of its muscles to be shredded. If it wasn"t for the beast"s tough scales, then the bullet would have inevitably shredded its organ instead.
-Boom!
The beast, unable to withstand the pain and steady itself in the air, quickly plummeted to the ground, creating a ma.s.sive crater and dust to fill the air.
"It seems I miscalculated the amount of mana I should use." Xiao Yang was aiming to one-hit kill the beast but he underestimated the strength of the beast"s scales. Though it didn"t matter since the fell away from where the young man was lying down.
Just as Xiao Yang was about to shoot the beast again, Fang Qiong quickly threw her spear into the beast"s fleshy wound like a javelin.
The spear drilled into the beast"s muscle, shredding its layers one by one before finally reaching its organs.
Despite the struggle of the beast, the spear continued to shred every single bit of its organ causing bits of b.l.o.o.d.y tissues to fly around into the surrounding.
After that, the beast stopped its futile struggle and its life-force quickly depleted.
Fang Qiong quickly fell to the ground on her knees, her muscles became exhausted after using up every ounce of mana into that attack.
This would have been extremely dangerous if she didn"t have the protection of the group, since exhausting all her mana is equivalent to exhausting all her strength, causing her to lose all ability to defend herself.
No mage would do such a thing unless they didn"t have any choice.
Glancing back at the beast, the body suddenly emitted a purple glow before its entire body decomposed into little purple firefly-looking shards then eventually condensed into a small purple ring.
Dong Zhou picked up the ring and handed it to her, there is no way to tell what sort of elemental tool it is except the person who has ownership of the ring; the person who killed the beast.
Fang Qiong took the ring then smiled, before handing it to Qian Fei.
"Huh?" Qian Fei asked in confusion.
Qian Fei summoned the elemental weapon, and almost instantly a purple slime-like liquid appears and moulded into a purple patterned crossbow.
The front of the crossbow shaped like the head of the eagle with three eyes and had an eminent of thunder element within it, such power could easily paralyze it"s opponent or even cause heavy damage to them.
Qian Fei looked at the weapon and immediately fell in love with the weapon, her specialty was in archery and had always been obsessed with all kinds of long-range weapons.
Fang Qiong smiled and replied, "If I remember correctly, you don"t have an elemental weapon. I believe this one will do great with you!"
Xiao Yang nodded in agreement, he knew that his cousin has a great talent in long-ranged weapons.
"Are you sure?" Qian Fei asked while staring at her eyes.
-Nod
"Thank you!" Qian Fei quickly inspected the weapon once again but then said worriedly, "It seems the bolts ain"t included."
They will only have a couple of days left to rest before the third stage starts, and bolts are extremely sensitive when it comes to elemental weapons, one must have it custom made to match its slotting.
"That"s easy" Dong Zhou chuckled then quickly activated his ice elemental power.
